Notes
Huey Lewis plays harmonica on Lovelight -- good luck trying to find him in the mix
R.I.P. Sandy- aka "Bigfoot" He was a friend of mine who had nothing to do with this recording, but we sure do miss him! I'm almost sure that he was at this show. Sandy used to work for the catering company that did the GD shows at the Coliseum Arena, so he had a pass that let him in early. When they would open the doors to let the Dead Heads in he would go down to the floor & at the sweet spot up front, he would place a blanket for a few of us. He would then place a blanket right in front of the board for himself. In all of the years that I knew Sandy, I don't think he ever recorded the Grateful Dead.

You really quit going to shows for a song played 5 times in their whole career? Show is not bad, nice recording.

Decent capture, thank you for sharing. Nearly 25 years later I still stand by my decision. This show was the date I decided to get off the bus. Mainly
...
due to Old Valley Road.
I had tics for all three nights at McNichols but none for Compton. I decided last minute to go to Compton, mainly for a warm, outdoor venue in December. So, this lil December tour, including New Years was to be were I parked the bus. If McNichols weren't as amazing as they were I doubt I would have ventured to Oakland for the New Years run.
No offense intended to those that like this era. It just wasn't the same for me. With the passing of hot seat from Brent to Vince/Bruce, I couldn't make the transition. I didn't enjoy Hornsby's solo career to begin with. I did like it when he played that big ole grand piano. That took me back & I appreciated it. Old Valley Road just didn't cut the mustard for me.
On a positive note, the Birdsong this night is terrific. Hornsby was a major contributor, & he complimented Garcia beautifully during The Other One. I do think Phil scared him a bit with a few of the bombs he dropped during the transition from space.

This was an early show for me, maybe my 10th or 12th show.... what I have remember for YEARS is the brutal "Other One" from this show. I ended up seeing
...
the boys live over 150 times since this show (yeah, I was on the road a bit), and this STILL stands out as one a top ten "Other One". I'm listening to it now and it truly is unforgiving and fast and . . . well . . . brutal. I put it right up with April 1 1988 as one of the best "modern" versions. BTW- this show is the 'official' 25th anniversary of the Grateful Dead. They first performed as the band "Grateful Dead" on Decemeber 4 1965. So there. Honestly, I don't remember much of the show other than the "Other One", but after a listen or two, "Wharf Rat" shines also....
